Sudden palpitations

2017-02-11 18:11:31
Hii, I was diagnosed with panic disorder 3 years back but now it's under control, but since a month I have been having some panic attacks with lightheadedness and feeling that I will faint and some palpitations. Yesterday I had a lots to drink and I was hungover, at night I got this feeling in my chest that my heart skipped a beat or the beats were very unusual like two big thumps I woke up and my heart was racing a bit. I had no other symptoms just a bit chest tightness. Something similar had happened before I did go to the doc they did ecg and tni test or something but it came normal. I'm 26 years old 5'11 and 74 kgs. Very healthy I gym at least 3 days a week. All my other reports were perfectly normal including the lipid and liver, kidneythyroid and so on. So is it my anxiety or is something wrong with me? I can control and handle all panic symptoms but the heart thumping is a nightmare.

Hello there.... The main aim of treatment is to help you to reduce symptoms so that anxiety no longer affects your day-to-day life. The treatment options depend on what condition you have and how severely you are affected. .... Cognitive therapy is based on the idea that certain ways of thinking can trigger, or fuel, certain mental health problems such as anxiety and depression. The therapist helps you to understand your current thought patterns - in particular, to identify any harmful, unhelpful and false ideas or thoughts which you have that can make you anxious... Consult psychiatrist....
